1 A Twisted Awakening in the Afterlife

Renjiro Hayashi opened his bleary eyes and let out a groan as the morning sunlight pierced through his bedroom window. He rubbed his unkempt hair and glanced at the clock, realizing he had overslept yet again. With a sigh, he dragged himself out of bed, his room filled with the stale scent of cigarettes and unwashed clothes.

Renjiro stumbled into the bathroom, his reflection in the broken dirty mirror showcasing his disheveled appearance. His dark, greasy hair hung over his forehead, partially obscuring his dull eyes and weak chin. He couldn't remember the last time he shaved or cared about his appearance.

He quickly brushed his teeth, grimacing at the taste of morning breath mingling with the remnants of last night's alcohol binge, he thought back on the previous day and how he spent majority of it half drunk. As he glanced at himself one more time, he muttered, "Not like anyone cares how I look anyway."

Dressed in a crumpled shirt and wrinkled pants, Renjiro shuffled out of his small apartment, his worn-out sneakers scuffing against the concrete. He navigated the streets of kyoto , blending into the sea of commuters. With each step, he felt a growing sense of entitlement and a perverted excitement welling up within him.

Approaching a busy road crossing, Renjiro's looked at the crowd, searching for an unsuspecting victim to indulge his perverse desires. His gaze fixated on a young woman, her skirt swaying gently in the breeze. A lewd grin spread across his face as he devised a plan to satisfy his vile urges.

As the traffic lights changed, Renjiro positioned himself strategically, his eyes never leaving the girl's figure. He waited for the opportune moment, his heart racing with anticipation and his mind clouded by his perverse intentions.

But fate had other plans. In his eagerness to satiate his perverse desires, Renjiro failed to notice the oncoming car. The screeching tires and blaring horn became a sudden crescendo of chaos. He tried to move but he dazed and his body refused to respond to his commands.

The impact was swift and merciless. The pain was so intense Renjiro's brain could not process anything else, all he could see was blinding lights as passerby's took out their phones to take pictures of the scene, he lifted his hand trying to call out for help but his vison kept blurring till he lost consciousness.

An ambulance arrived at the scene, its wailing sirens piercing through the city. Renjiro was rushed to the hospital, his body broken and his consciousness fading while he tried to cling to life, his existence now teetering on the edge of oblivion.

As the doctors fought to save him, Renjiro's world grew dimmer, Renjiro drew his final breath and faded into the darkness.

A blue haired woman with blue eyes and an oval face stormed through a corridor angrily while maids and guards were scurrying away from her path, she barged into a room with a very large bed and a white haired lean muscled man lying half naked on the bed, she leapt about six meters and landed on his hard torso before proceeding to smack his face

Renjiro felt something sitting on his body and some pain on his face and he was startled awake, the first thing he saw was a pretty blue haired girl sitting on his body.

"where am I" Renjiro muttered as he tried to move his body, the blue haired girl wiggled and he felt the appendage in his lower regions grow harder, it seemed like the blue haired girl also felt it and leapt off the bed while screeching.

"you perverse idiot, get dressed we are running late already" the blue haired girl screamed at Renjiro while running out of the room in embarrassment.

"late to where" Renjiro retorted but the blue haired girl had already left the room, Renjiro stood up while wondering where if he was dreaming or this was the afterlife, after pinching his face he decided to go with the latter option, he moved around the room to get a better understanding of his surroundings, he saw that there were a lot of flowers in the room and even a tree with silver edged leaves and fruits that looked golden in color growing out of them, he quickly rushed over and plucked one of the fruits and bit into it, the fruit was surprisingly fleshy and the taste was overwhelming, he couldn't believe that a fruit could have such a wonderful taste it tasted better than anything he had tasted during his time on earth, it further went on to solidify his speculations on this being the afterlife, but he considered a lot of his actions during his time alive and wondered why his afterlife was this blissful and beautiful.

His gaze went back to the tree and he noticed that another fruit had grown from the place he just plucked from, he was shocked and proceeded to pluck another fruit and another fruit replaced it, he tried it a few more times and another fruit just popped up in place in mere seconds, he soon got bored and proceeded to explore other parts of the room, there were a lot of vases in the room with different exotic flowery plants which he was sure didn't exist during his time on earth and there were others he could recognize, he even noticed that the room had a sweet flowery scents and even with the numerous flowery plants in the room the scents didn't clash, but were very pleasant, the walls were made of granite and there were images of different flowers and a woman with ethereal beauty carved onto the walls, he traced his fingers through the carvings on the walls as he walked towards the windows he discovered that the room he was in was situated at the top of one of the castle tower's and that there were about twelve other smaller buildings that stood in circular formation and the middle of all the buildings was a statue of a woman whose face was veiled, he was still caught up in his thoughts when someone barged into the room again startling him.
